| Σύνοψη: | This essays considers hope as an essential aspect of Kierkegaard’s philosophy. Comparing his pseudonymous works with Works of Love helps us to understand hope as the breath of the eternal, which is experienced in time as future possibility. True hope rests in the future eternal good and not in optimistic or calculative expectations. Hope is a necessary condition of the self on the journey to the eternal and as such is constitutive of the self. It is the belief in the in-breaking of the eternal into the temporal, which wholly surpasses earthly expectations in the form of the certain expectation of the future eternal good which is beyond all human possibility. |
